Hi everyone remember me?!?!
I love the pink stitch, but have no idea what her name is and it's driving me nuts! Her tsum tsum purse!!!!! Love it. I saw some fabric with tsum tsum a on it that was adorable. I'm trying not to buy it cuz I don't know what I'd make. Still--I hear it calling my name....
Her name is Angel! Ohh the possibilities are endless with the fabric!!! I think i might go buy it.. and you know my feelings on sewing! HA HA
Your egg war is too funny! And way more creative them our making of the 5,000 deviled eggs, egg salad sandwiches, eggs in salads.....
Nope. we kill the eggs. I am allergic to eggs so this is fitting! HA HA!
I'm having the worst time convincing my laptop to quote so I'm giving up for the moment and just commenting straight-up.
Don't even get me started about laptops! I have to take mine in today to a friend. My CD drive is kaput. i worked on it ALL day friday.. NOTHING.
This trip is our family of 5 for the first 8 days, then our family plus a family of 4 (DH's work friends).
Which just made it a whole lot more fun!!! Good times spending it with friends!
The Carolina Homeschooler trip is just a big group who go at the same time to get homeschool ticket prices and the free included class. Our family homeschools, but you don't have to be homeschoolers to sign up for the trip, as long as you are going during the same time period. Saves a ton on ticket prices!
This is interesting.. I would love to know some of the "homework" you do during the trip? I would love for the kids to do something while there and bring back to class?!?!
I don't know if the link is allowed, but if you google Carolina Homeschooler Disney 2015, you can get all the details. If you aren't doing a package to get something super discounted, you might want to consider the trip.
Na. i am interested in what they are.. only because i am nosey! LOL
Resort Hopping (and Deluxes): When we realized, back just after the turn of the century (2001-2), that we were going to have at least a few kids, we sprung for DVC. We bought our points when Disney was selling them for $79/point. Now they're $169/point through Disney.....so we feel like we made out really well. We've already had over a decade of vacations on just the initial cost and our yearly dues, with many decades left.
WOW! good Job on getting in there!!! wish we would have done this!
DVC makes it pretty affordable to get rooms at the deluxe resorts. Cheaper per night for us than POP or AoA, even. And with that we get laundry and in the 1/2 bedrooms a full kitchen. We've got one kid with celiac, so we do some cooking even at Disney. Even just eating breakfast in the room half the time saves us hundreds of dollars.
I agree with eating breakfast in the rooms.. The kids do this and works out GREAT for us!
I got those Poly nights at 8:00am...at 8:05am they were sold out again. It FELT like winning the lottery.
YOU DID!!! I cannot wait to hear how you liked them!!!!
You're the 3rd person who says they don't enjoy the GF. It's one of the few resorts we haven't stayed at yet, so we were tempted. Now I'm starting to wonder if we'd rather do Bay Lake Towers (Contemporary) or Wilderness Lodge Villas. Any opinion on those?
I am NOT a fan of GF too stuffy for me and my crazy family we just don't feel comfortable there.. I would go to BLT in a heartbeat for the views. plus it's a short walk over to MK!
there are such great resorts WL is the last of the deluxe i would want to go to IN the Dells there is a WL we stayed in it was great. I don't want to feel like we are back in the dells ya know what i mean?@?
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that picture of Joe and Tom. Poor Pocahontas! LOL!
Me too.. I keep doing flashbacks from our 11 trip.. since it's about the same time we are going this year! remember having to take a pic after this just so it didn't feel so creepy?!?!?
Lol. Your Easter looks awesome.
I was mean and made my older 2 wait until 7am to wake us. I'm so mean!!!
Na.. I would have done that too IF i was home when they went to bed..
OMG, I got so far behind. I suck. BUT, I love all your plans so far! I'm glad your trying Garden Grill! It's one of our favorites! The food is good, characters great, and it's fun to watch the place spin.
Ha! i missed you! glad you came back!!! yes spinning restaurants are FUN! I am looking forward to this.. Something NEW!
I'm in love with Stevie. What a little monster, but I love him. He'd be welcome in our house, but our 17 lb. cat might try to eat him. And he's probably scare the bajeezus out of our pug, which would be hilarious.
Stevie.. Yes.. What to say about this ferret... well it isn't Dis appropriate! LOL
No cats.. He is a character but i can't have him eaten either! HA! He is a LOT of fun I think i have to Video him in a bathtub. THAT is fun stuff...
I can't believe your AK day is predicted as a 1! A 1!!!!! That's awesome. Maybe in NOvember too, it won't be like THE hottest place in the universe.
I KNOW RIGHT?!?! Crazy awesome!!!
Your Easter pics are great, but I couldnt' see the egg dyeing ones for some reason. Great baskets! LOVE Stitch and Angel. Egg wars. Fun!
Egg wars are the way to go.. GOOD TIMES. not too bad with injuries.. Stitch is really becoming very popular.. Have you been in Hot topic lately?
And I love your throwback pics from 2010. They were so little! You know I love that kind of thing, but stop growing so fast!
Thanks.. Yes. they are getting WAY to big WAY to fast. Matt no longer need to look up at me. we are almost eye to eye now..
Ha! Love the egg wars
Might be a reason to start coloring eggs. Maybe....
Love Meg's cute purse!
I'm tellin ya it's a GREAT TIME!
Meg LOVES her new purse.. she has been carrying it around everywhere!!
I have to say your family is a riot...y'all have so much fun..we don't color eggs anymore, just use the plastic ones..
Thank you!!! Yes we do have loads of fun! Life is too short need to life it!
OK... Here's the link to my 50s PT experience from our 2012 trip... Its so cute to see the girls so little (and not so cute to see me so big...). Anyways.. Consider this really awesome, because I am posting this link via my tablet.
<----- talented.

Oh good grief.. THANKS I will not be asking for a fun server! but i do want a TV table..... I hope to get one.
What a fun Easter tradition! I love it, something a little different makes it even more special.
It does doesn't it! we love it and look forward to making the crazy eggs especially for the war!
I just love See Ya Real Soon. They are the best!
I've been catching up on some older trips.
I do love them!!! They are a lot of fun.. BUT they go on Kali river rapids WAY too much! HA HA HA..
I love your plans for this MK day...you know my undying love for Crystal Palace, Tigger and puffed french toast. And then to come back in the evening for the party? PERFECT! We've done that party twice now and although we won't do it again, I'm so glad we got to see the awesome parade and Holiday Wishes.
Loved the Easter pictures and your family Easter Wars.
THANKS! Yes i do know this is your solace!
I would like to bounce with Tigger but i really just want to cuddle Eeyore! Yes this will be a re-do from 2011 i hope to feel tons better this trip! LOL!
I'm slowly getting caught up….again! I just showed Dan the video (can't believe you really posted it here!!) and he said I looked mad. I wasn't, I just thought he was right behind me and was shocked to see he was nowhere in sight! What a hoot!
Hey!!! Welcome back!!! I have missed you so much! Of course i posted it here! where else would i post you! your a blog star!!!!!!! Wednesday is a new episode!
You need to watch them i am sure your in there some more!!!
I love Crystal Palace! Not so much for the food, but it is so beautiful and the characters are so fun. We usually have lunch or supper there, have never done breakfast. We did get some cool "almost empty" photos when we did the Keys to the Kingdom tour. You will love it! Especially with Eeyore!
It's going to be great! Cannot wait for the empty castle pictures!
Love the Easter pics! Never heard of egg wars. Somehow, it just fits for you guys…I'll have to try it next year with the grandkids. Looks like a ton of fun. I love the pic of Tom all pouting. And it's so great that your munchkins still believe.
Ha! yes Egg wars. they are a BIG part of our Easter traditions. Tom was really upset Bob lost.. Twice..
I don't think you have to worry about a good server at the 50's. Your family radiates fun vibes and I'm sure they will pick up on that. I hope you have tons of fun there and enjoy the food. I love it!
HA HA HA HA HA! we do like to have a good time.. pretty outrageous. Oh i plan on taking more pictures then i have ever taken before.. Reminds me i need more SC cards.
Well, while I was busy getting my parents settled at their assisted living facility, finishing emptying the contents of their home and finishing up our condo rehab and getting it on the market….wait for it….our Disney trip crept up on me. Can you believe we leave in 4 days????!!!! Yes, I said 4. I JUST started packing yesterday.
WOW you were busy! I hope all is well with your parents!!!
4 days!?!? HOLY cow that did come up quick!!! you still have 4 days to pack... that's a lot.. remember i packed the DAY OF!
I don't suggest this...
Good thing this isn't our first rodeo or we'd be in deep trouble. But now that all the drama and emotion of the last few months is over, I am so ready to take Miles for his first trip to Disney. It will be a short trip. Only 5 days since Jennifer doesn't want to have him out of school more than 3 days. But we'll pack a lot into those days and have plenty of pool time too. He won't go on a lot of the rides, so it will be a different trip than we're used to, but I'm sure so much fun anyway.
No kidding, you GOT THIS! you deserve a break after all the running and like you said drama! hey 5 days in Disney is WONDERFUL!!! It's 5 days!!!
I'll try to be more faithful in stopping by. I miss my friends!!! Have a great week!
I hope you do! miss you around here!
Your Easter post cracked me up! Especially, the EGG WARS! Every time I saw a photo of the carnage (the pile of egg guts), I died laughing. How hilarious!
Ha! thanks! we have a great time!!!
mine is dead... D.E.A.D dead.. 
People are REALLY talking me into a 
.. 2016 sounds good right?!?!
